An excellent wine, but in a strange sense at the end of its cycle; opens up with a great classic nose, great color, great balance, Bordeaux like style … then it devolves into something else.

pretty ripe on the nose with stewed prunes. Acidity was on the high side but tannins were still present on the palate. Nose was very fragrant with lovely spices and woodsy notes. Still very tannic even after decanting for 1½ hours.

drank 45 minutes after decanting. Definitely woodsy, a little smoked meats, potpourri, plum, reasonably fragrant. Plenty of acidity.

Not enough time to open up. Pnp and was consumed in an hour. Still excellent.

still concentrated, with notes of grilled meats and good, ripe fruit. Slightly ripe and sweet on the palate.
